My thanks for some lovely notes about our Tom Lehrer Bday commemoration as well as some requests for next time for one of the new artists we played---Cal Scott.  Agreed, he is really wonderful.  

On another note now---you probably have heard of the new piece by Brad Paisley about "The Accidental Racist".  Not my idea of a good song but there is one I have hesitated to play---AND--you will not hear it on mainstream media (not even on the left side of the dial).  Grant Peeples piece---Nigger Lover.  Do not let the title fool you---it is a terrific piece of work and I suggest you go to his website to find out more about it(and listen to it)---or request it for TRADITIONS.  If I get enough of them---say 12 (even dozen) I will take the bull by the horns and play it.

Now for some comments about today's artists that seemed, to me, quite outstanding in the "new" category----Cal Scott,  Zoe Mulford, Lauren Sheehan, and Dan Berggren.
